I don't have to be making a lot of money or living in a fancy house.
I think a lot of people on Twitter say, 'Oh you're really cute. I want to adopt you,' and things like that, yeah.
I seem to be landing a lot of roles with animal interactions, which is amazing.
I'm so excited to be working on 'Doctor Who,' as it's such a big and important part of British culture.
The power of Twitter still never ceases to amaze me.
When I first watched 'Coraline,' I thought, 'If that ever got adapted...' If it was done by real actors, I think that would be a really fun thing to do, just because it's a kind of whole new universe.
I don't wanna be liked just because I'm pretty.
I didn't want to escape my life and become a big actress and live my dreams. That was never the way it was; it was just these amazing opportunities that happened.
I'd much rather be liked because people realize that I'm standing up for myself.
Going out is the typical thing when you turn 18, but it's not really much fun when you have a recognisable face.
I feel people care so much about their appearance - which is important, and I do still care about my appearance, but not that much. There's far more to life than that.
I can't ever see myself playing the romantic lead because that's not me; I'm not that girl.
You hear horror stories about scary mothers who just want their kids to be famous. I could be waitressing in a restaurant, and my mum would be happy as long as I was happy.
Boys can just wear a suit on the red carpet and that's fine, but for girls it's all about the way you look, and there are constant comparisons.
